From Peace Station Encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to searchA bright, bluish A-type star, HR 8799 is the central component of the HR 8799 system with several massive planetary companions.
The star is young – less than 100 million years old – which means its planets are still glowing with heat from their formation.
HR8799's dust disk stands out as one of the most massive in orbit around any star in UCP space within 300 light years of Sol.
